Non-dual Imagination
Living within a One Planet reality
During the last 50 years, humanity’s Ecological Footprint has increased by nearly 190% indicating a growing unbalance in the human-environment relationship, coupled with major environmental and social changes. Our ability to live within the planet’s biological limits requires not only a major re-think in how we produce and distribute ‘things’, but also a shift in consumption activities. Footprint calculators can provide a framing that communicate…
Religious Experience without an Experiencer
Experience" is a category that seems to have developed new meaning in European thought after the Enlightenment when personal inwardness took on the weight of an absent God. The inner self (including, a little later, a sub- or unconscious mind) rose to prominence about 200-300 years ago, around the time of the "Counter-Enlightenment" and Romanticism, and enjoyed a rich and long life in philosophy (including Lebensphilosophie) and religious studies…
Revisiting the World Bank's land law reform agenda in Africa
This paper revisits the World Bank's land law reform agenda in Africa by focusing on two central issues: (1) land law reform as a tool for resolving land conflicts, and (2) the role of land law reform in addressing gender inequalities. While the Bank's recent land report provides insights for improving land governance in Africa, it fails to acknowledge the exploitative and contentious politics that often characterize customary land tenure systems…
Saying all the right things? Gendered discourse in climate-smart agriculture
Amidst debates about the role of 'climate-smart agriculture' (CSA), the intersection of concerns about climate change and agriculture offer an opportunity to consider how gender is considered in global policymaking. The latest module in the Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations, World Bank and International Fund for Agricultural Development Gender and Agriculture Sourcebook - 'Gender and Climate Smart Agriculture' - offers an o…
Ecological Footprint
The ecological footprint is an aggregated indicator which provides a measure of the global ecological impact of human resource consumption. The measure is based on a strong sustainability position as it considers the ecological limits to resource consumption and economic growth. By comparing the area of land required to support a certain level of consumption with what is currently available, the ecological footprint is considered a valuable appro…

Evaluation and Environmental Governance
This paper applies insights from actor-network theory to extend our understanding of the influence of evaluation techniques in decision making. Rather than assuming that evaluation is influential because of the intrinsic methodological veracity of the technique-that is, because it measures 'the truth' of our environmental predicament-it is more useful to view the adoption of evaluation tools in terms of their contested translation into decision-m…
Assessing the Environmental Consequences of Major Sporting Events
Policy-makers are increasingly interested in the wider ramifications of sporting events, including the environmental impacts of event visitation. This paper demonstrates how two separate though related methodologies were used to inform conclusions on the economic and environmental impacts related to event visitation. The approaches used to assess the case event were environmental input-output tables and ecological footprint analysis. Combining th…
The Environmental Impacts of Consumption at a Subnational Level
This article analyzes the environmental effects of resource consumption at a subnational level (by Cardiff, the capital city of Wales), using the Ecological Footprint as a measure of impact assessment. The article begins by providing a short critique of the Footprint methodology and the limitations of methods traditionally used to calculate national Footprint accounts. We then describe the Footprint methodology developed by the Stockholm Environm…
